Wonderful program. I've been looking for something like this for a long time. I would like to see the ability to output this to a database. The spreadsheet is nice but to put this into a database and build an ASP page so that others in the dept can quickly and easily browse/search on the info.

    Actually, here's an expansion on this idea.

    New option 1:

    Put all of the output in one spreadsheet tab, but add a new field at column A with the title "Switch Name". Each row has the switch's name in the "Switch Name" column. This allows easy analysis using Excel pivot tables or allows the spreadsheet to easily be imported into a database. This allows very fast summarization (like attached device model counts) of devices attached to each switch.

    New option 2:

    Database output as requested above but make sure each record in the database table has the "Switch Name" field.

    I like the "New option 1:" It would be very helpful and could even work for the csv version. Searching and sorting would be easy! And it could still be imported into a database, or could directly be used at a data source.

    Thank you
